[PHAEDRIDER]

[mateeeii]

you know in 300 when they say "this is madness!"..."no...this IS SPARTA!!!".

well.

"this is madness!"..."no..this IS SUICIDE!!!"

a work of art.

[mick2spic]

Does it truly get any better than this?

[LazarusGordon]

[SiMoFkr]

Fucking Genius!!!

[dundas7878]

you dont know anything about music then

[rebelpowerz]

thanks for posting. i saw Suicide in 1986 supporting Hawkwind in Leeds UK.

Suicide changed the way i felt about music & what i thought i understood about music. the set they played was extremely intense. many of the audience didn't understand what it was they were part of (including myself). remarkable band & experience. unforgetable

[pinholedstars]

what a bill!

[snksone]

FUCKING INCREDIBLE!

[chadyellowhammer]

You There! Below me!

OBEY THE RULES!

[mechanism0901]

blistering fury.. great

[mechanism0901]

through assimilation, those speakers are out to destroy.

?>_)*&^%%

[mechanism0901]

this filtering noise of destruction... excellent.

[Horsemanray]

1,000,000,000x better than black dice.

[monsmartyrium]

This isn't music.

[adventuregalley]

it's so much more..

[pinholedstars]

it's even better.

[FelixLeeArtist]

[noisetuner]

waw ... i wish there were more live videos -

waw...

[FelixLeeArtist]

That must of been so fucking cool.

[gododinou]

FANTASTIC! Many thanx!! Alan is a genious! He is the inventor of the modern rock'n roll and the father of all 'Electroscene'. Suicide was the true sound of NYC and Alanis the only 'Elvis in Hell'.

[LazarusGordon]

this awesome as video as music as thing... fucking great experience

[diskochimp]

That is fucking AMAZING!! The uber-shitty quality actually enhances it! Coolest band EVER?

[LazarusGordon]

stunning awesome, totally a deep grey hole

[RESISTANCEFIGHTER]

THE BEST FUCKIN' BAND EVER!

[SWISSCOLORVISION]

Thank god Suicide still upsets people. Hipsters should stick to the safe stuff like Vampire Weekend.

[dj7eight]

well spoken sir.

[floweringsilverzero]

hell yeah

[gododinou]

FANTASTIC!!! MANY THANXXXX :)

[oskorei123]

insane?

brilliant?

who cares this shit would have been sick to see in 1980

[markmarek]

I think this was the show they did at Hurrahs up near Lincoln Center back then

[untigredepapier]

Hey, do you know what venue this shot was at? The NYU library has an archive called Fales with all sorts of information on the Downtown scene. It's only open to researchers though: damn.

[whitevogue]

deghene!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nogodsnomasters]

Anybody that doesn't like this shouldn't be allowed to have sex anymore--as I don't believe that anyone who doesn't appreciate Alan Vega should be allowed to mate. I mate all the time, and I love Alan Vega, but how many of you can claim the same?

[yanianyan]

"Anybody that doesn't like this shouldn't be allowed to have sex anymore" hahaha, excellent comment.

[pachuccocadaver]

oh yeah! cocaine! :D

[sonicjoydivisonswans]

on some parts he sounds like nick cave when he was in the birthday party. this is cool.

[svonco]

i think i'd be frightened if i were in attendance. great stuff though.

[svonco]

thanks for sharing this!

[AlbertTransom]

Beautiful! Thanks!

[quimkaos]

damn it! it remembers the early stages of alien sex fiend

goooood stuff

[jack2000x]

They don't make bands like this any more. Fucking great!

[whalleybanger]

I just watched this like 10 minutes ago and now it's not working. Anyways, it's great.

[markmarek]

Was this the show at Hurrah?

[Deeh222]

Suicide is minimalism at it's finest!

[arfandomega]

Amazing!

[arfandomega]

Amazing! Five Stars

[rudehund1981]

[cowboystitching]

What is the name of this song? It's fuckin' great!

[nonwave1]
